I am Danielle Edmund. I got interested in hospitality management by traveling around in the last two years. My school never prepared me for my career choice nor was it equipped to teach me about it.Ā  Having no career experience will not stop me from accomplishing my goals and making hospitality not only something good that I can experience but for everyone as well. I want guests and visitors to enjoy themselves where ever they go just like I do. My personal strengths are persistence, patience, observation, listening, asking questions, working with a team, making sure everyone understands and is not left out, learning from my mistakes and skills from my professors.Ā  Also being kind and always smiling because I believe that happiness is gained through helping others out and knowing their happy is bigger than any paycheck i will ever get. The personal interests that will enhance my professional attributes are actually what lead me to choose this career. Wanting to help others, making sure people enjoy themselves traveling, and soft fluffy hotel beds and making guests visit one to remember and return back to again soon.

I am a first year student at New York City College of Technology majoring in Hospitality Management. In my high school life, I got the opportunity to be part of a culinary program that later will permit me to experience my first volunteering jobs, then from those chances came an shot that would result in my first competition. Junior Iron Chef America competition, even though my team lost, I took comfort in why we lost. The instructions were to make something that kids would eat for lunch at school, my teams Mediterranean Quesadilla tasted too sophisticated that it was deemed to ā€œadultā€ for the regular lunch menus. In my senior year, I had the second opportunity to participate in another culinary competition, FCCLA baking competition and with the guidance of my culinary teacher I was able to get past my dislike of baking to obtain second place and two scholarships from Culinary Institute of America and Johnson and Wales. From then on my main focus is on becoming a DJ to help up me continue my start up small entertainment company that I started with my high school friend, we provide obviously the entertainment, we also provide catering, security, and hopefully at one point in the future have a venue.

I intend to accomplish everything I set out to do and make all my ambitions a reality. I intend to use my experience as a server to help me transition to bigger and better things. I have aspirations to become a bartender and perfect my craft. I’ve been at my restaurant for a little more than 2 years and have worked my way up to where I am at the moment, I was hired as the first ever male host and since then I’ve experienced every front of house position available. My long term goals are to sharpen my leadership skills to the point where I can manage a restaurant.

In the fall of 2014 I came to City Tech for the first time, I arrived thinking I was going to be in the accounting industry. Took a year to decide all the paper work, number tracking and sitting behind a desk wasn’t for me. So I went into liberal arts, it was there where I met a good friend named Justin who persuaded me into joining Hospitality because we had spoke about our goals in life, things we want to do and it was then were I wanted to join Hospitality because I want to learn about different cultures and type of foods. I’m very open minded to culinary and hotel management and not too sure what I want to do yet.
